Orthopedic Surgeon

I got to work today and realized that Luk had an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon today in Victoria.  I still use a paper calendar to keep our lives organized.   I've tried the phone apps but I still prefer writing on the squares.   Anyway, quickly called Eric and we changed our day around and zoomed to Victoria.   He saw Dr. Weatherhead, who Lili sees for scoliosis.   He was pleased with Luk's progress.  He wasn't concerned in the least.  Didn't want an mri.  Didn't measure him.  Said his movement range and muscle tone were all normal.  Certainly normal for a kid that's only been walking for four months.  Zero restrictions.  He feels it's unlikely that Luk will have future problems.  He put him on a one year call back but didn't feel he would ever need a spina bifida clinic.  He did glance at his scar briefly.  So, good news all around.

We used the rest of our bonus day in Victoria to go pet the baby goats, go to Value Village to find a replacement cord for the power cord I fried in China for our wifi router and finally to Spaghetti Factory.  A big hit for our gang.
